Armytage, OF San Francisco, was ar.
rested tonight while attempting to
pass bogus check for $500. Army

ter was placed in Jail tonight. 1t is
supposed that the letters in his pos
session are also forgeries. Armytage

A Lost Car Found.

A very singular loss and recovery
occurred recently on the Union Pa
cifc near Laramie. A special freight,
running passenger time, broke in two
on the hill, and the front section ran
around a sharp curve SO fast that it
whipped off the rear car, filled with
choice Chinese silks, into the gulch,
where it disappeared from sight in
the heavy brush. The break was SO
clean that the two sections were
coupled together without the single
cars absence being noticed. For
two months that car lay there while
the entire road was being searched
high an low for it, and not
soul could guess where it had gone.
The other day a cowboy rode into a
small station on the line and casually
asked when they were going to clear
up that wreck down in the gulch:
The agent knew of no wreck, and
thought the cowboy was fooling with
him, but at last, convinced he was in
earnest, went with him to the spot
where he had indicated the wreck
was to be found. There at the bottom
of very deep fill, behind huge pile
of boulders and mass of sage brush
lay the missing car, No. 80. 1t was
resting on its side, and strange
enough the trucks were in
proper place. The doors were
seal,d, and there was moth
ing pcyond few bruises and dents
in the roof and sides to show that
there had been any rough treatment
experienced. The agent thought he
was dreaming, but when he found he
was wide awake, he lost no time in
hurrying home and telegraphing tc
headauarters. The car was raised
and It's contents found intact. The adj
mirable weather OF the mountain re-
rion. the absence of rain and the un
fortunate fact that the car was com
pletely hidden from view from the
track above, combined to prevent thu
valuable cargo from the ravages oith'
elements or ofpassing tramps, sother'
was not Il dollars worth OF loss to tht
lot (Omaha Republican.

a Close Game Between tn
Pioneers and Giants.

SAN FRANcIsCo, November 27.-Ten
thousand people witnessed the con-
test between the Pioneers and New
York Giants this afternoon. Lorrigan
was in the box for the Pioneers and
pitched the game of his life. The
New Yorks' fielding was sharp and
brilliant, and Kelly at second and
Denny at third played for all there
was in them. Danny Richardson,
however, was the man who saved the
Giants from possible defeat. His
fielding was superb, both of his put
outs being extremely difficult running
catches, one of which robbed the
Pioneers of run, which would have
tied the score, while one of his two
two-bagger1 pushed Danny across the
plate with the only run of the game.
Score: New Yorks, L; Pioneers, 0.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
ATLANTA, GA, November 27.-After
the most hot-headed contest on record
in the State of Georgia, Atlanta to-day
voted against prohibition. The fight
has been a peculiarly bitter one and
for over a month the citizens have
been engaged in the contest, holding
meetings nearly every night. Both
sides had full campaign funds and
managed their respective courses for
all they were worth. The negro vote
was the bone of contention and the
balance of power, each side making
the most strenuous effort to get it.
The negros were considerably divided
on the subject although the majority
of the men voted the anti prohibition
ticket. One feature OF the contest
was the
ACTIVITY OF THE WOMEN,
And the result of their work was
shown to-day by the appearance of
many women at the polls with blue
badges. They served hot coffee and
sandwiches at every polling-place and
conducted prayer meetings and sing
ing crusades in the open air. Fulton
county, in which Atlanta is located.
voted two years ago on the same ques-
ton, and went for prohibition by a
majority OF 229. The registration this
time exceeded that of last year by
1000 votes.
THE PRINCIPAL FIGHT
Made on prohibition during the CAIN
paign was that it did not prohibit, and
that Intoxicating drinks could be
openly purchased in a number of
places throughout the city which paid
taxes to the United States Govern
ment for the sale of whiskey. Thou
sands Of gallons have been sent in
each month from the cities around
Atlanta.
THE PROHIBITIONIsTs CLAIMED
That Atlanta had never had prohibit
ton; that while it was so voted years
ago, the licenses then existing did not
expire until almost a year ago, and
since that time the domestic wine
clause in the local option bill allowed
many places in the city by which the
law could be evaded. This was, how
ever, remedied by the last legislature,
which put license of $40, 600 on all
the wine rooms after January lst.
The city has gone "wet" by probably
a thousand majority, and great enthu-
slasm prevails on the streets.
LATER OFFICIAL RETURNS
Make the anti-prohibition majority
l120. The Ants carried every one Of
the six city precincts and all but one
OF the sixteen precincts in the county.
The most intense excitement prevails
tonight, and the Ants are ju5ilant.

STEAMSHIP SUBSIDIES.
The Pacific Mails New Contract
with the Railroads.

NEW YORK, November 27.-Vice
President Lauterback, OF the Pacific
Mail, to-day confirmed the announce
ment that at the Chicago meeting of
the transcontinental lines subsidy of
$65, 900 month by the overland rail-
ways was granted to the steamship
companies. He said that it was prac-
ticably the best arrangement for the
company that has been made since
the original subsidy of $4,000
month. 1t was much better than the
recent subsidy of $50, 700, because the
contract with the Panama railroad has
been modified so that transportation
acrossthe isthmus leaves a larger profit.
OF course the steamship company
will not compete for the higher classes
OF freight, as in former contracts. The
overland railroads guarantee monthly
freight and the use of the steamship
line for carrying heavy merchandise.
